Elektron Updates Analog Heat MKI/MKII

US New features include class compliant audio over USB and preset transfer 09/10/19

With the new Analog Heat OS 1.20, Elektron says that they have added features that will expand the usability of their powerful sound processor, enabling more sound sculpting possibilities and experimentation. A spokesperson told us, “With these new features, plus a few improvements and bug fixes, 1.20 is here for your fiery leisure!”

Here’s more details in the company’s own words…

Class compliant audio over USB
We’ve added support for class compliant audio over USB. This means that you will have new possibilities when using the Analog Heat together with devices that supports class compliant audio (such as computers, phones or tablets) making it an even more flexible partner in your setup. Practically this means you now may use the unit in a bunch of different scenarios - for example, as an audio interface, recording the processed sound, or as a sound processor for your USB audio host. You can also use the USB audio host as a pre or post effect for the Analog Heat. The choice is yours.

Check out all the routing options in the new Audio Routing menu. Here you can setup up the audio routing in a multitude of different ways to suit your particular setup and needs.

Preset transfer
You can now export and import the Analog Heat’s presets and settings. This enables safe storage of your favorite presets and settings, and the possibility to reload them at your convenience.

For a full list of improvements and fixes, check the release notes.

If you use the Overbridge Beta, you will need to update to the new Overbridge release, which is also released today to support the new 1.20 firmware. You can download this at Elektronauts (log-in required).
